WARNING: This post has the word "shit" in it. No other vulgarity exists.
There has always been a small group of women who believe that the most desirable men need to be dominated, taken down, or at least "stood up to," as if somehow being "bitches" was attractive to men. While small in number, the effect these women have had on society is far-reaching as word spread from one man to the next to beware of these women, as if they existed lurking in the shadow of every reasonably pleasant woman like My. Hyde to Dr. Jekyl. Men began enacting regulations to limit the ability of women to "ruin society" by forcing ALL women into a bizarre sub-class of humans, ones that needed to be "protected," contained, and corralled by (you guessed it) men.
This is not to say that there have not been an army of uneducated, ignorant by choice, and more than a few truly misogynistic men throughout every generation. Some men who did not "understand women" (again, often by choice) would castigate them
en masse while others, fearful of what might happen should women be reincorporated into "civilized society" as fully functioning and
independent humans sought to, or supported the efforts of others in, subjugating women to prevent a loss of power and then-current structures of power and categorization.
At the heart of every argument against female independence was the fear and loathing of "bitches," women who were more trouble than value to the world arond them. In the same way that far too many men bring so little value to the world around them in comparrison to what they demand and take from others, some women are afflited by this debility. But the term "bitch" stuck. As socially acceptable a word as it ha become, it should be noted that the word implies the very thing men do NOT want in their world, their wallet, or their skull. Men with any sense of intelligence and compassion (both virtues, by the way) generally abhore and resist "bitches" in their environment, unless they suffer from some lack of self-esteem, guilt, or need to reconnect with some woman gone through the "bitch" they keep close to them.
Bitches as a whole make men unresponsive, angry, violent, and inflame any dishonesty they may possess. The problem with using vinegar (or shit) to attract flies is that you end up smelling of the very catalyst you employed to corral the few insects you obtained. Honey has been the preferred method for getting what you want, and is employed successfully by billions of people throughout the world every day. If personal happiness is YOUR goal, I for one recommend NOT "being a bitch" no matter what one author says. Hitler was an author as well. He suggested being "extremely rude to people he did not like" in his writings. History has taught us that was about the single worst idea ever, and it ruined millions of lives for severla generations. I would beware of authors who advise that YOU gamble with your freedom, sanity, and safety by pissing people off so you can get what you want. It is more than karma. It is insanity.
